Update required | Photoshop and Premiere Elements

Issue

When you are trying to install or log in to Adobe Photoshop or Premiere Elements, you see the following error message:

"Update required

Your browser or operating system is no longer supported. You may need to install the latest updates to your operating system.”

Internet Explorer 10 Support Deprecation:

Earlier versions of Adobe Photoshop and Premiere Elements relied on Internet Explorer 10 (IE 10) for Sign-In workflows required during installation and licensing. As Microsoft has ended support for Internet Explorer 10 (IE 10) Adobe IMS Authentication has now deprecated support against this version of Internet Explorer.

Adobe is also moving away from supporting Internet Explorer 10 (IE 10) based licensing workflows, and the latest release of Adobe Photoshop and Premiere Elements would not face any issue. Still, if you are using an older version of Adobe Photoshop and Premiere Elements, you may face licensing and signing-in challenges. The below article details the workaround to be applied to fix these issues.
